Free Saturday!

First thing this morning we helped the cub scouts plant flowers at Devin's school as a service project.

So we kind of had a free Saturday with no kids. I signed them up for a Super Saturday program (just this Saturday) of child care. It was really nice to have lunch with Dane and just spend the day with him. We still had to get our normal things done, but it was much easier without kids.

Happy Happy Birthday to you from me!

Happy Birthday mom!

I wish we were there to make your day special, but we are they in spirit.

Finally no rain for Devin soccer game or practice.

Pictures are not great but you get the idea. Both games he has made a goal, so he is really doing great and getting energy out.

The other day Dane took Devin on a bike ride for about 1 hour. Devin came back with such a red face. Dane wore him out, finally! I like daddy-son time!

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to everyone!

I am happy to be a mother of two crazy boys. Hard to believe I am about to add another boy into the mix, but I am sure I will grow from it.

Thanks to Daddy and Devin I got this wonderful palm tree behind us for Mothers Day and a wonderful card from Devin he made at school. It is a good Sunday.

I told Dane awhile ago that he could always give me a plant instead of flowers, so I can enjoy them longer than a week. My house is starting to get plants everywhere, which I love!

Happy Mothers Day!

I thought it would be fun to play a little game and ask you what in our living room did I get for Mothers Day? A little early!

Jarom was not happy about my picture taking, so he was throwing my pillows!

Dane thought this was blog worthy, so here it is... My sacred grove picture just needed some color around it. Do you think I painted it?

Jarom's first gymnastic class!

Today was Jarom's first gymnastics class. I was completely tired, but we went anyways. He was the highlight of the class! He went crazy running to all the different things to do. The coach was very surprised at how strong and go go go! I would say he is a "tank" that hardly gets hurt. This class was only 30 mins, but he took advange of the entire 30 min to run and go crazy. It was good for him.

tunnel time, which at first he said "bobo?" Once he realized it was safe, he was all over it.

rolling down the ramp

I love this picture looking so big

He loved this rolling hill going down.

This week

I guess no news is good news! Besides crying over silly stuff, like Dane looking at me wrong, I have been fine. I have been very emotional. Dane would say I have been a rollercoaster! I went to the doctor today and had my gestational diabetes testing done. I was not looking forward to not eating all morning and then drinking that nasty drink and sit for 2 hours. I survived, but feel nauseous almost all day. By the way, I did pass the test. No diabetes for me!

I really wanted to have some picture of Devin's first soccer game tonight, but my batteries stopped, so maybe next time. He did great and even made a goal! It got really cold and rainy here, so I was ready to come home and relax. I should have some picture of Jarom tomorrow. I signed him up for a toddler gymnastic class, so that should be fun to see.

Doctors appt

So I went to the baby doctor today. I just wish I could have an appt without any problems. Here in Germany, they do a stress test every appt (weird). Well this time I happen to have a contraction during that test which the doctor did not like. I really think the contractions are just the fake contractions (braxton hicks contractions). I just to do know if Germany doctors are just overly cautious or what. I also have low Iron which I had my last pregnancy. So doctors orders, no hard work and no picking up heavy things. Does a 30lb toddler count that does not go where he should go? With all this, now I have to go back in a week. It is hard to find someone to watch Jarom for all these appts. I just really do not like going to the doctors EVERY WEEK for every little thing!
